I have a serious buyer in line for the purchase. We're just working out the transportation details right now. I'll make a post once the car is finally out of my possession. Thanks again for all the inquiries.

Update: Deal pending...

Hey Pat - if you can find someone to buy my car... http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/cars-sale/234261-1987-turbo-t-grey-w-blackout-pkg-excellent-condition.html I'll gladly buy your LQ4 setup. :biggrin:

Sold - thanks for all the inquiries.

Okay - you guys are making me re-think this whole thing. Maybe I should keep it. But regardless, thanks again for the compliments. As for the interior, yeah I'm pretty anal about it. If I'm working on it for any reason and need to take it out for a test drive, I'll lay down towels on the...

Thanks for all the kind words Wordy1. Yes I still have the VDO GNX style gauges (in the pic above). I also have the original turbo shield along with a replacement one I purchased and had powder coated to match the valve covers. There isn't a shield on there now because I'm in the process...

No silly questions, we were all new to this stuff at one time or another. It's the external wastegate.

In a box along with all the other original pieces off the car. It's got the "less is more" or "sleeper" feel to it.

Bump for the weekend crowd...

Just recieved this from Jet-Hot yesterday, I went to an external wastegate setup so I have no need for this one. It's never been mounted since it's been refinished. Shoot me a PM if interested. $380 shipped in 48 states.

No - I made the panel that is currently in the car with the Autometers, it's an exact duplicate of the one you see there, just a different material. What you see there on the workbench are the other gauge setups that came with the car. They will go with the car along with all the other parts...

Thanks Jim - I put the Autometers in myself. The car was equipped with the GNX style VDO gauges when I purchased it so half the work was done for me. I just had to fab up a mount panel and run a few new leads. They work great.

More pics uploaded... Other things about the car I failed to mention are the Walbro 340M fuel pump w/hotwire kit, TA rear end girdle w/stud kit, pinion snubber, test pipe w/cut out, s-10 wheel cylinders, and boxed rear lower control arms. Under the hood there is a ported throttle body and RJC...

There are a few underhood pics at the original link from the first post... I_needa_break/1987 Turbo-T - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting Let me know if you guys can't view them for some reason. I'll take more and post a new link soon.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I'll PM a link to the carfax to those that are interested. I should have more pics posted up this weekend as long as the weather permits.
